Question

If the temperature of a reaction is increased, the reaction proceeds at a much quicker rate because the

Answer 1

Explanation:

When we increase temperature of a substance then bond between the atoms will start to break and the molecules will move apart from each other. As a result, there will be increase in number of collisions between the molecules. Thus, reaction will occur at a faster rate.

Also,   K.E = $\frac{3}{2}kT$

where          k = boltzmann constant

                    T = temperature

Hence, kinetic energy is proportional to temperature. So, more is the temperature more will be the kinetic energy. Therefore, more will be the rate of reaction.
